Happy Birthday Dulquer Salmaan: First look as Lieutenant Ram out, Thanks producer for the ‘Birthday Gift’

Happy Birthday Dulquer Salmaan.

As Dulquer Salmaan turns 35, we take a look back at the life and career of the actor who,  not only had struggle for his first picture, as he is after all the son of one of India's most famous movie stars, Mammootty — but has managed to break free from his father's shadow and establish his own identity. Today, he stands tall as a star solely on his own merits and abilities.

The actor is not just well-known among Malayalam film lovers, but is a famous name at every household across the country.

On his birthday, Swapna Cinema, the film's producers, presented the first look of star Dulquer Salmaan from his untitled sequel. Dulquer Salmaan plays Lieutenant Ram in this film directed by Hanu Raghavapudi of Padi Padi Leche Manasu fame. Aside from the first look posters, the filmmakers also released a video of the actor on set, dressed in army fatigues. 

 

The makers while sharing the first look poster and the glimpse of Dulquer, tweeted: “Our extraordinary man… Happy Birthday ‘Lieutenant’ RAM, @dulQuer.” See video here.

In the video footage, the character is seen pondering about the woman he loves.
